>Seeing this simple failure illustrates a risk in moving that direction.

Right. There are currently no known failures in the private system. Let's stick with that.

The phrase 'well has dried up' meant that I'm no longer looking to freelance, I'm trying to apply to salaried positions and was hoping for some examples from other freelancers who have been in a similar position.

>The incentive to build new rental housing will evaporate

Or the incentive to build cheap apartments that can be profitable with the caps will increase. If you know you can easily get X amount per apartment, and can build and manage a building under that total amount, why wouldn't you? This is often a recurring theme that I see that people seem to do. Since something can't be as profitable as before, no one will ever try to make a profit now. I don't get it. There will be developers who will figure the numbers out and make good money. Of course the numbers may be too strict and my scenario isn't a possibility, but I would bet you haven't ran the numbers yet to know it's not.

I would first do some research on probiotics. From what I've seen, the only proven benefit came using them ina very certain situation which I forget completely (it was something like it helped clear up diarrhea after an antibiotic quicker or something like that). My point is they aren't cheap and you could simply be wasting money. I'm honestly not informed enough either way, but when I looked into them a few years ago, there was little to no proven benefits of using them.

I don't know, the Ax FX is insane. I would bet good money that 99.99% of people couldn't tell the difference between it and an amp in ideal situations.

Well the majority of people aren't voting and our system is clearly going to shit on a major level. The point is that it's your civic duty to vote, people fought and died for your right to vote, and it's the best non-violent way for you to impact your world. It boggles my mind when people advocate for others not to vote. You know that's what the power structure wants right? An apathetic population. How on earth can people look at our current situation, where the majority don't vote, and say it's working? How can people look at that and say the solution for more people to not vote? I'll never understand it.

Of course not. This was some government contractor taking the tax payers for a ride. They could charge $x more per train this way and just through in a shitty gps device. Things like this aren't accidents.

It has an SD card reader. You can double the storage for super cheap.

Perhaps he makes art everyday but simply doesn't publish it.

It's funny you mention suburban drivers. I have lived and have friends who lived in both suburban and rural areas and I found that without exception rural drivers are far, far, more likely to drive drunk.

We've heard this song and dance before. Excuse my skepticism, but I don't believe you and until we can see some source code, I won't believe you.

>If you hold that something like 9/11 should be prevented

Nice strawman.

Look at my original comment. Clearly there will be people who can get away with doing little and maintain weight while others will have to work much harder. I would guess you're pretty young as well, most young people stay relatively fit without doing much.
